Figure 10 shows another embodiment of apparatus 100.Apparatus 100 comprises motor 164.Motor 164 can be any motor being configured to the electric power activating one or more driver (such as, the rotatable driving adapter 118,120,122 of Fig. 6).Motor 164 is attached to battery 156, described battery 156 can be that dc-battery (such as, rechargeable lead base, battery etc. that is Ni-based, lithium ion based), alternating current-direct current transformator or any other the applicable electric energy that provides are to the power supply of motor 164.
Battery 156 and motor 164 are attached to the motor drive circuit 404 be arranged on circuit board 154, and circuit board 154 controls the operation of motor 164, comprise electric energy and flow to motor 164 from battery 156.Drive circuit 404 comprise be configured to the operating condition measuring motor 164 and battery 156 multiple sensor 408a, 408b ... 408n.Sensor 408a-n can comprise voltage sensor, current sensor, temperature sensor, remote sensor, optical pickocff and combination thereof.Sensor 408a-408n can measure the voltage of the electric energy provided by battery 156, electric current and other electrology characteristics.Sensor 408a-408n also can measure the rotary speed according to revolution (RPM) per minute of motor 164, torque, temperature, current drain and other service performances.RPM is determined in rotation by measuring motor 164.The position of multiple driving shaft (such as, the rotatable driving adapter 118,120,122 of Fig. 6) is arranged in axle by use or the multiple linear transducer at adjacent shafts place is determined or estimates from RPM measurement.In an embodiment, under constant RPM, calculating torque can be carried out based on the rated current consumption of motor 164.In a further embodiment, drive circuit 404 and/or controller 406 can Measuring Time as the above-mentioned numerical value of its function process (such as, comprising integration and/or differential) to determine the change etc. of measured value.
Drive circuit 404 is also attached to controller 406, and controller 406 can be any applicable logic control circuit, and it is suitable for performing calculating and/or operating according to one group of instruction, and this will be described in more detail below.Controller 406 can comprise the CPU being operably connected to internal memory, internal memory can comprise ad hoc type internal memory (such as, RAM) and/or non-provisional type memory (such as, can read multi-memory card, disk video disc, etc.).Controller 406 comprises multiple input for joining drive circuit 404 and outfan.Especially, controller 406 receives the measured sensor signal carrying out the operating condition about motor 164 and battery 156 of driving circuit 404, and in turn, based on sensor reading and the instruction of specific algorithm, output control signals to drive circuit 404 to control the running of motor 164, this will be described in more detail below.Controller 406 is also configured to receive the multiple user's inputs from user interface (such as, being attached to the switch, button, touch screen etc. of the Control Component 107 of controller 406).
Present disclose provides the equipment for control device 100 or any other powered surgical apparatus and method, described powered surgical apparatus includes, but are not limited to linear power anastomat, circle or arc power anastomat, grasper, electrosurgical sealing tweezers, rotational tissue mixing arrangement (rotary tissue blendingdevice) etc.Especially, the torque of the driving shaft of apparatus 100, RPM, position and acceleration can be associated with motor characteristic (such as, current drain).The electric current consumed by motor 164 can be used to detect mechanical limit, this is because the electric current consumed by motor 164 changes along with the load of motor 164 and speed.Thus, to the load situation that the analysis of the variable quantity (such as, rate of change) of current drain allows difference dissimilar, such as, the load applied by mechanical stop (mechanical stop) is compared in the load applied by tissue.
In the process of motor 164 normal operating, current drain can not exceed predetermined scope (such as, the first scope) usually.In clamping and anastomosis procedures, the load being applied to motor 164 by tissue is changed in the second scope, and the second scope is comprised by the first scope.Especially, when motor 164 runs into owing to organizing the load caused by anvil block and nail bin groupware 306,308 clamping to increase, current drain increase and in the second scope continue the second period (such as, current drain increase continue the predetermined period).If motor 164 runs into mechanical limit, current drain also has corresponding increase within the relatively short time, and this current drain is greater than the current drain be associated with clamp tissue.Especially, the current drain caused due to mechanical stop continued for the 3rd period in the 3rd scope, and wherein said 3rd scope is higher than the second scope.By contrast, the startup of motor 164 all consumes more multiple current than any one in clamping/fastening or mechanical stop, and the persistent period of the current drain increased is the shortest in two current drains as above.
In an embodiment, can by comparing motor current and predetermined marginal value detects mechanical stop, this is because the electric current consumed by motor 164 when running into mechanical stop is usually far away higher than normal operation current.Controller 406 can use the satisfied of this condition to cut out motor 164.
When motor 164 runs into high momentary load (such as, grip tissue) in course of normal operation, this method presents some challenges.The current drain be associated with clamp tissue may reach marginal value, thus causes controller 406 to close motor 164 prematurely.In an embodiment, normal electric motor load curve can be built prevent too early closedown by the normal current consumption of split-phase motor 164.Then, controller 406 can be set up program thus cut out marginal value according to the adjustment of that curve.For the motor 164 of load curve having small variations, this configuration is applicable.But if load curve departs from and normally uses the current drain be associated, large variation may produce wrong report.
The efficiency of motor 164 and driving mechanism also can have impact to calculating motor current limitation.Because the mechanical efficiency of different apparatus may be different, so in an assembling process, each apparatus needs calibration separately.In addition, mechanical efficiency changes along with the wearing and tearing of apparatus and also can affect the performance of software.
The problem using single-marginal value or the algorithm based on curve is overcome according to algorithm of the present disclosure.Advantage according to algorithm of the present disclosure is: described algorithm utilize electric current along with the rate of change of time instead of by the amplitude of motor current compared with predetermined marginal value.The rate of change of the motor current be associated with different loads (such as, normal load, heavy duty, mechanical stop, load peaks, etc.) can be divided into different range, and wherein, each scope is associated with certain loads.Then, the scope of dividing can be used to identify the different loads of motor 164 and the spike that caused by startup and the stopping of motor 164 of filtering.Because the identification of mechanical load is rate of change based on motor current but not its amplitude, so do not affect remained capacity with departing from of load curve.In addition, mechanical efficiency does not affect the remained capacity of the rate of change based on motor current.More inefficient apparatus consume more multiple current to obtain identical speed, but, still similar to the slope of the system of greater efficiency for the slope (such as, the rate of change of current drain) reaching those speed.Which eliminate the demand to load curve (load profiling) and calibration operation in the process of assembling apparatus 100.
Low computational costs according to another advantage of algorithm of the present disclosure.Described algorithm is relied on the rate of change of calculating motor electric current and can be determined the rate of change of motor current by the difference obtained between two values, thus permission performs algorithm in 8 8-digit microcontrollers.
Can by periodically measuring the change of motor current to current sampling.In an embodiment, sampling rate can be from approximately per second 100 to approximately per second 10,000, in an embodiment, and from approximately per second 500 to approximately per second 1,000.Then, controller 406 can use the change of sample calculating motor electric current (such as, current drain).Then, controller 406 can use the change of motor current determine the operational scenario of apparatus 100 and take appropriate action.
The disclosure additionally provides feedback system for control device 100 and method, described feedback system and method are based on peripheral operation situation, the transmitting difficulty such as due to tissue thickness and/or mechanical stop (such as, driving beam 365 to arrive the distal end portion of the passage be limited in anvil block plate 312 and staple cartridge 305), apparatus 100 being run into.In addition, the different purposes that the disclosure is apparatus 100 in response to peripheral operation situation (such as, specific fault) supply a model, to obtain built-in system feedback.Controller 406 uses the sensor information of sensor 408a-n change the operating characteristic of apparatus 100 and/or point out specific operation situation to user.In an embodiment, controller 406 controls the electric current that (such as, limiting) is supplied to motor 164.
Controller 406 comprises computer-readable internal memory 406a for store software commands (such as, algorithm) and/or non-provisional medium, and described software instruction is used for the mechanical limit detecting apparatus 100 based on measured current drain.Used herein, term " mechanical limit " represents that any electromechanical component arrives travel terminus position, this including, but not limited to, such as, the distal end portion driving beam 365 to arrive to be limited at passage in anvil block plate 312 and staple cartridge 305, the actuating of machine security locking mechanism prevent the advancing of axle 364, the Articulating limit that Articulating connector 366 arrives end effector 300, etc.
To fall in the scope that limits in advance with the change starting the motor current be associated of some load situation (such as, clamp tissue or mechanical limit) and continue certain time.Described algorithm uses the operating characteristic of these situation identification motor 164 and responds to this.
With reference to Figure 11, internal memory 406a stores multiple current consumption value.Internal memory 406a comprises the enquiry form 500 or any other data structure be applicable to value " I-V ".First value " I " and the 5th value " V " limit the first scope, the stabling current consumption signal that normal (such as, carrying) that the first scope comprises instruction motor 164 operates.Second value " II " and the 3rd value " III " limit the second scope, the current drain that described second scope correspondence is associated with the current drain of motor 164 in the process of clamp tissue; 4th and the 5th value " IV " and " V " limit the 3rd scope, the current drain that described 3rd scope correspondence is associated with mechanical stop.In an embodiment, first value " I " can be worth with second " II " identical.
Controller 406 also comprises the counting of paid close attention to situation (condition-of-interest), the quantity of its counting sample, wherein, in counting process, the slope of motor current (such as, rate of change) in desired scope (the arbitrary scope such as, in first, second or the 3rd scope).Controller 406 also comprises signal stabilization counting, the quantity of the sample of its counting slope in the second scope.Controller 406 uses the value of form 500 to judge whether the rate of change of measured current drain signal is stablized.If the predetermined quantity of current drain sample is outside the first scope, then signal is considered to unstable; If the predetermined quantity of sample is in the second scope, then signal is considered to stable.
Figure 12 shows according to of the present disclosure for judging whether motor 164 runs into the method for mechanical stop.The software instruction (such as, algorithm) that described method can be stored in controller 406 as described above performs.First, controller 406 calculates the moving average of measured motor current (such as, current drain).Used herein, term " moving average " represents the average of predetermined subset sample, when the sample that each acquisition is new, upgrades described average.According to sampling rate as above, moving average can comprise from about multiple sample 2 to about multiple sample 256, and in an embodiment, from about multiple sample 16 to about multiple sample 64.Controller 406 stores the first moving average and calculates the second moving average of sample set subsequently.Then, controller 406 determines that difference between moving average is to calculate the change between sample.
As shown in Figure 12 to Figure 13, the moving average of sample can plot Figure 70 0,800,900, and the change wherein between sample is depicted as the slope of Figure 70 0,800,900.Figure 70 0,800,900 can produce and export over the display, thus allows user to watch the current drain of motor 164.In an embodiment, Figure 70 0,800,900 can be stored as a series of value in internal memory 406a, and without the need to by sample value regeneration figure.
The change of the motor current monitored also is restricted to slope, and is used to distinguish the dissimilar load run into by motor 164.Controller 406 is first by judging whether the slope/change calculated carrys out decision signal in the first scope outer (such as, slope is greater than the 5th value " V " or is less than the first value " I ") and whether stablize.For the sample of the quantity limited in advance, if slope is outside the first scope, controller 406 is by being set to counting and the signal stabilization counting that zero, 0 initialized or reset paid close attention to situation by the counting of paid close attention to situation and signal stabilization counting.In addition, signal condition is also set to " instability " by controller 406.
With reference to Figure 14 and Figure 15, the sample lower than the first value " I " as shown in figure 14 and the sample higher than the 5th value " V " are as shown in figure 15 by filtering, this is because abnormal undershoot in above-mentioned sample representation current drain and positive spike.These spikes can be caused by the startup of motor 164 and stopping and can causing based on the wrong report in the judgement algorithm of marginal value.
Whether at judgement slope after the first scope is outer, controller 406 judges slope whether in the second scope (value II≤slope≤value III).If so, then count increments is stablized.Before signal condition being become " stablizing ", controller 406 is verified stable counting and whether has been arrived predetermined marginal value.This guarantees that sample continues enough periods in the second scope.Anyly to depart from (such as, slope is outer in the first scope) all reset the counting of paid close attention to situation and signal stabilization counting and signal condition be set to " instability ", this describes above.
With reference to Figure 13 to Figure 15, have nothing to do with the actual margin of motor current sample, if slope is in the second scope, then signal is considered to stable.Thus, the lower-magnitude of the sample of the higher amplitude being fallen into the sample of second scope of Figure 15 by algorithm of the present disclosure with similarly mode process and the second scope falling into Figure 13 and Figure 14, this is because the attribute paid close attention to is the rate of change of the slope of motor current sample.
Controller 406 also judges sample whether in the 3rd scope.For each sample in the 3rd scope, when signal is considered to stable, the count increments of the situation paid close attention to.When sample drops to lower than the second value " II ", the count of the situation paid close attention to.The counting of the situation paid close attention to is used to identify mechanical stop, and this will hereafter be described in more detail.If the counting of the situation paid close attention to is higher than predetermined marginal value, then controller 406 is determined to arrive mechanical stop.With reference to Figure 13, multiple sample has the slope falling into the 3rd scope, which increase paid close attention to situation counting and, when arriving predetermined counting, trigger mark as follows: arrive mechanical stop.Once controller 406 is determined to arrive mechanical limit, the electric current supply to motor 164 can be stopped thus prevent the further operation of apparatus 100, and/or apparatus 100 can give the alarm.
Figure 16 show according to another embodiment of the present disclosure for determining whether motor 164 runs into the method for mechanical stop.
As mentioned above, controller 406 comprises the counting of the stable situation counted and pay close attention to.Controller 406 comprises positive spike counting and undershoot counting further.These countings keep electric current (such as, slope) to exceed the number of times of the first scope.More specifically, when motor current is higher than value " V ", positive spike count increments; When motor current is lower than value " I ", undershoot count increments.Whether controller 406 uses the rate of change of the current drain signal measured by the judgement of the value of form 500 to stablize.If the current drain sample of predetermined quantity is in the first scope outer (such as, the quantity of positive spike and undershoot is higher than predetermined positive spike and undershoot marginal value), then signal is considered to unstable; If the sample of predetermined quantity is in the second scope, then signal is considered to stable.
As mentioned above, the method for Figure 16 can also be performed according to the software instruction be stored in controller 406 (such as, algorithm).First, controller 406 calculates the moving average of measured motor current (such as, current drain).Used herein, term " moving average " represents the average of predetermined subset sample, when the sample that each acquisition is new, upgrades described average.According to sampling rate as above, moving average can comprise from about 2 samples to about 256 samples, and in an embodiment, from about 16 samples to about 64 samples.Controller 406 stores the first moving average and calculates the second moving average of sample set subsequently.Then, controller 406 determines the difference between moving average thus the change (such as, slope) between calculating sample.
The change of monitored motor current is also restricted to slope, and for distinguishing the dissimilar load that motor 164 runs into.First, controller 406 judges whether slope is greater than the 5th value " V " and moving average is before updated to the moving average calculated at present.If slope is higher than the 5th value " V ", then positive spike count increments and undershoot count.In addition, whether controller 406 investigates positive spike counting higher than predetermined positive spike counting marginal value.If so, controller 406 initializes or resets paid close attention to situation counting and signal stabilization counting by paid close attention to situation counting and signal stabilization counting are set to zero, 0.In addition, signal condition is also set to " instability " by controller 406.If positive spike counting lower than predetermined positive spike counting marginal value, then stablizes count.
After whether judgement slope is higher than the 5th value " V ", controller 406 judges if sample drops to lower than the second value " II ", then the count of paid close attention to situation.
Controller 406 also judges whether slope is less than the first value " I " and moving average is before updated to the moving average calculated at present.If slope is higher than the first value " I ", then undershoot count increments and positive spike count.In addition, whether controller 406 investigates undershoot counting higher than predetermined undershoot counting marginal value.If so, controller 406 initializes or resets paid close attention to situation counting and signal stabilization counting by paid close attention to situation counting and signal stabilization counting are set to zero, 0.In addition, signal condition is also set to " instability " by controller 406.If undershoot counting lower than predetermined undershoot counting marginal value, then stablizes count.
With reference to Figure 14 and Figure 15, the sample lower than the first value " I " as shown in figure 14 and the sample higher than the 5th value " V " are as shown in figure 15 by filtering, this is because abnormal undershoot in above-mentioned sample representation current drain and positive spike.These spikes can be caused by the startup of motor 164 and stopping and can causing based on the wrong report in the judgement algorithm of marginal value.
Controller 406 also judges slope whether in the second scope (such as, being worth " II "≤slope≤value " III ").If so, then count increments is stablized.Before signal condition being changing into " stablizing ", controller 406 is also verified stable counting and whether has been reached predetermined marginal value.This guarantees that sample continues enough periods in the second scope.In addition, controller 406 initializes or resets positive spike and undershoot counting by positive spike counting and undershoot counting are set to zero, 0.No matter stable counting lower than or higher than predetermined marginal value, moving average is before updated to the moving average of calculating at present.Anyly to depart from (such as, slope is outer in the first scope) also reset the counting of paid close attention to situation and signal stabilization counting and and signal condition is set to " instability ", this describes above.
Controller 406 also judges sample whether in the 3rd scope.For each sample in the 3rd scope, when signal is considered to stable, the counting of the situation paid close attention to increases.The counting of the situation paid close attention to is used to identify mechanical stop, and this will hereafter be described in more detail.If the counting of the situation paid close attention to is higher than predetermined marginal value, controller 406 is determined to arrive mechanical stop.With reference to Figure 13, multiple sample has the slope falling into the 3rd scope, and this makes the count increments of paid close attention to situation, and, when arriving predetermined counting, triggering and indicating as follows: arriving mechanical stop.Once controller 406 is determined to arrive mechanical limit, the electric current supply to motor 164 can be stopped thus prevent the further operation of apparatus 100, and/or apparatus 100 can give the alarm.
